Trebek has earned my respect.

Ever since it was disclosed that he has stage 4 cancer, he continues on as if nothing has happened.

= = = = = = = =

I had heard he said something about he has 3(?) years left on a contract so tight he couldn’t even ‘die’ before it was up...(Or something along that line)...

I had always figured if I were to have to start double jeopardy the best way to go was the 2000 line until you got ‘beat’....that will put you back in the game in a hurry (of course, it helps to not only know the answer but have good eye/buzz/hand/click/coordination)

I remember a ‘Married, With Children’ episode where Kelly won a chance to get on a Jeopardy type show and Al had somehow figured out that in Kellys case when one item of info went in, one went out so he force fed her answers and she got to the final round worth a gazillion or so bucks and she blew the one answer she had heard almost every day of her life.

Who set the record for Polk High by scoring 4 TDS in the championship

Apparently they had fed her too much info and it had forced out the only fact that she probably actually knew.

Al - as usual - took failure well....
